Climate

The greenest floorplate is usually the one already built.

We treat embodied carbon as a budget line with the same weight as cost and programme, declared at concept, tracked to handover, published afterwards.

Commitments

Five things we do on every project, whether or not it is asked for.

01

Measure before designing

A whole-life carbon baseline is produced at concept stage, so decisions are compared against a number rather than an instinct.

02

Retain structure and envelope

Demolition must be justified against the carbon it spends. On average our retrofits avoid 61% of a rebuild baseline.

03

Specify for disassembly

Demountable partitions, mechanical fixings and documented material passports so the next fit-out reuses rather than skips.

04

Commission properly

Most operational waste is a commissioning failure, not a design one. Systems are witnessed, tuned seasonally and handed over with evidence.

05

Publish the outcome

Twelve-month energy and carbon data goes into our public reporting, including the projects that underperformed.

Repeat business

Efficiency is earned back over decades. Embodied carbon is spent in a single season of demolition.
